How do China people get good English names?

How to choose an English name? Let's have a look.

Question 1. English names are too common

The first problem is that English names are too common, such as Henry, Jane, John and Mary. This is just like foreigners naming Zhao Zhiwei, Wang Xiaogang and Chen Xiaoping, which gives people a far-fetched feeling. Although there are no certain rules for naming names, the feeling it gives is very important.

Question 2: Changing the name and surname

Generally speaking, people from non-English speaking countries may change their names when they come to the United States, but none of them have changed their surnames. This is related to family honor, and it will also be related to genetics in the future. Therefore, no matter how difficult it is to pronounce your last name, you should stick to it. It is common for people to change their surnames even when they give English names, such as Situ Jian KenStone and Shane YanShaw. The following English surnames are acceptable, but it is best not to use them, such as Young Yang and Lee Lee.

Question 3. English names are homophonic with surnames

Some people have an English name that is homophonic with surnames because they are called many times. However, such English names are acceptable by themselves, but it is not natural when they are full names, such as Xiaoshan ShawnXiao, Zhong Qi JoneZhong, Zhou Xun JoeZhou and Anxin AnneAn.

question 4. if you don't understand grammar, use the wrong part of speech

nouns are generally used for names, not adjectives. Some people don't understand this rule and use adjectives to name them, such as Lucky, which is actually not an English name.

Question 5. Wrong gender

Occasionally, people get the wrong gender, such as the lady named Andy Andy,Daniel.
